品牌渊源
Burncoose Nurseries 位于英国康沃尔郡 Redruth 镇 Gwennap 村, 1984 年开始做邮购苗木, 是 Caerhays Castle 庄园旗下的苗圃业务。Caerhays 庄园培育的山茶、木兰、杜鹃等木本观赏植物一部分就供给这里销售, 二者共享育种与展示资源。苗圃本身至今已自营 40 余年, 线上目录常年保持 4,000 余种植物在售。
主营目录
Burncoose 的目录按植物类型分得比较细, 包括高山与岩石植物、竹子、芭蕉、球根与根茎类多年生植物、攀援植物、针叶树、矮灌木、蕨类、果树、地被、香草、草本、灌木、观赏草、棕榈与多肉植物等。苗圃自留的”特色专题”是山茶、木兰、杜鹃、绣球和 Caerhays 育种, 这些也是从康沃尔郡酸性土壤出发的本地强项。
配套服务
除了卖苗木, 苗圃还在站点上提供月度园艺技巧、种植指南与”Caerhays 花园日记”等内容, 定期更新植物表现记录。每年切尔西花展 (RHS Chelsea Flower Show) 苗圃都会参展, 2025 年已是第 41 年参加; 现场有免费的花境设计咨询 (Free Border Design Service), 也对外提供景观设计与园林施工服务、植物讲座、出口贸易咨询, 以及针对专业园丁与贸易客户的批发渠道。

Brand Heritage
Burncoose Nurseries sits at Gwennap near Redruth in Cornwall, southwest England, and has been dispatching plants by mail order since 1984. It is the nursery arm of the Caerhays Estate, sharing parent plants, breeding material and display gardens with Caerhays Castle. Four decades on, the online catalogue lists more than 4,000 plants, with camellias, magnolias, rhododendrons, hydrangeas and the Caerhays-bred lines treated as the core specialties.
Plant Catalogue
The catalogue is organised by plant type and covers alpines and rock plants, bamboos, bananas, bulbs and rhizomatous perennials, climbers, conifers, dwarf shrubs, ferns, fruit, ground cover, herbs, herbaceous plants, shrubs, ornamental grasses, palms and succulents. Cornish acid-soil staples — camellias, magnolias, rhododendrons, hydrangeas and the Caerhays-bred range — sit in the dedicated Specialities section.
Companion Services
Beyond plant sales, the website carries monthly gardening tips, planting guides and the Caerhays Garden Diary. The nursery exhibits at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show each year — 2025 was its 41st appearance — and offers free border-design advice at the show. Services also include landscape design and planting, talks, an export desk for international orders, a wholesale channel for trade and professional gardeners, and a published carbon-footprint statement.
Location
The nursery is at Gwennap between Truro and Redruth in Cornwall, attached to a 30-acre display garden that opens free to visitors. Opening hours run Monday to Saturday 08:30-16:30 and Sunday 10:00-16:00, with a seasonal pop-up café serving drinks and light food Thursday to Sunday. Production beds and display plantings share the same site, which is unusual among British nurseries.
Ordering System
Ordering runs through both the printed mail-order catalogue and the online shop. The site hosts a printable order form, gift vouchers (Burncoose and National Garden schemes), a newsletter signup and a catalogue-request form, with a UK phone line (+44 (0)1209 860316) and email (info@burncoose.co.uk) for direct orders. Trade and export customers follow dedicated processes, and packing, pot-size and delivery guidance are documented on the site.
